ALZHEIMERS??
Alzheimers is a very serious and dangerous disease that can affect short/long term memory loss, cause difficulty thinking, and changes behavior. This is usually found in elderly citizens or middle aged men or women. This disease doesn't just affect the person who has it but also the people they love, family and friends. Some symptoms for moderate Alzheimers are increased memory loss and confusion, problems recognizing family and friends, lack of concern of hygiene and appearance. But the severe symptoms are not being able to recognize oneself or family, inability to communicate, needing help with daily activities, and often mood swings. There is no cure for Alzheimers and it only worsened and continues to progress for the rest of that person life.
The Thinker!!!!!!
After doing a lot of studying and research there is one very shocking and it shocked me myself. A migraine, yes i said a migraine, is a more severe version of an headache but very more painful. The symptoms for a migraine are pounding headache, nausea, vomiting, and light sensitivity. There are many over the counter anti nausea drugs and abortive or preventive medications. You must try to treat this as soon as possible because you brain is overworking itself and can overheat and once it reaches over a certain temperature it can cause permanent brain damage and cause loss in memory and ever motor functions.
